“Western civilization is doomed, unless the core weakness of suicidal empathy is recognized and actions are taken that are hard but necessary for survival. Gad Saad articulates this well. All of Gad’s books, including this one, are great.” — Elon Musk
Dr. Saad examines a social and psychological pattern in which compassion can become misdirected in ways that weaken the cultural and moral foundations of Western society.
Drawing on more than 31 years as a professor and behavioral scientist, along with personal experience, he presents a scientific and evolutionary framework for understanding how emotional systems can become dysregulated, causing a positive human trait to be redirected in harmful ways and moral judgment to lose balance.
He explains how this pattern develops, which groups may be most vulnerable to it, and what can be done to guard against it. This work is for readers who want to understand how empathy can be manipulated, how emotional reasoning can override common sense, and what practical steps can help restore clear thinking and sound judgment.

Suicidal empathy is closely related to toxic femininity
Thanks
Suicidal empathy is understanding others in a way they are not. Libs have been doing since 9/11 at least.
It’s not really suicidal empathy. It’s get-your-neighbor-to-commit-suicide-al empathy.
The ones parading their “empathy” around have no intention of committing suicide.
That’s one example that he covers, but there are many more.
The 19th Amendment was a huge mistake.

Dr. Saad is right on the money.
Virtue-signaling is synonymous with suicidal empathy.
Both are socialist creeds.
“It’s not really suicidal empathy. It’s get-your-neighbor-to-commit-suicide-al empathy.
The ones parading their “empathy” around have no intention of committing suicide.”
It’s not about individuals committing suicide through pathological compassion, it’s about a society committing suicide when there’s an orgy of pathological compassion that infects most of society.
The mind pathogen that is the root of this disease is postmodernism which has taken over universities in the west. And it has spawned literally dozens of suicidal mind viruses (chief among them multiculturalism) that have infected large portions of society, especially the higher echelons.
It renders the dominant native culture defenseless against attacks by foreign cultures that want to replace it because “all cultures are the same” according to multicults.
Ok, I was taking the term to literally.
Your explanation makes sense.
Orwell called women “swallowers of slogans.” You probably already know that.
“Orwell called women “swallowers of slogans.” You probably already know that.”
Yeah, the 19th wasn’t a good idea.
Unfortunately, there are millions of idiots out there, that think the constitution is a suicide pact.
Suicidal empathy is what got Barak Obama elected twice
